To Our Subscribers
UBING January we shall begin the collection of our back
subscriptions—and we are going to collect them even if we
have to sue for them. The matter of a subscription may
seem a small one to the individual subscriber, but it amounts
to a great deal to as, we having many hundreds of dollars on our
books purely on account of neglect on the part of our subscribers.
We have sent oat statements until we are tired. We have also
taken the trouble, and it is no small one, to put tbe dote of expiration with the name of each subscriber or his paper every.week,
that he'may know how he stands at aay time. We have never
forced our paper upon anyone. A subscriber may occasionally
receive two or three papers after ordering it discontinued, as our
mailing list is only corrected every four weeks, hat no charge la
made for such papers, and we have not to our knowledge a sabscriber on our list who has received the paper for more than four
weeks aftei ordering it discontinued. Wo do not atop the paper
when the time has expired unless ordered to do so. We most have
the back subscriptions, and we see no reaaott for delaying proceeding* longer. Many of oar subset ibers will e*ve thomeolvot trouble
and expenae by fettling their accoonta with as, either by cash or
note, before January.

Mutter of Phyeicai Structure, Aecont
ln« to an Authority.
But No Particular Cure-AII for Every
Malady.
George H. Gould of Philadelphia
says that mentality preceded and
created structure, it has been shown
that the mechanisms that give the
man externa] validity, speech and
writing, are one-aided. This one-sided
differentiation la progressive through
out lite. Right-handedness is partially
a matter of right-sightedness. In 97
per cent, of children the right eye is
the better-seeing eye. If oue is righthanded the centers for writing and
speech must be on the left side and the
visual centers on the same side.
Pathology follows any attempt to interfere with right or left-handedness.
Those persons who demand righthandedness of the left-handed child
make him morbid and maladroit The
author gives several very intei eating
cases of the lifelcag crippling of the
faculties and mechanism of writing
resulting from attempts to make a lefthanded person learn to u-e the wrong
side of his brain for writing.—Medical
Record.
Every disease has fte remedy, and
in the search for that remedy hundreds of cults of medicine have sprung
up. One man pins his faith in minute
doses oi powerful drugs; another
walks barefoot over wet grass; another eats raw fruit and grain; one is
confident that mud baths induce
health, and still another urges us to
chew each mouthful of food at least
30 times before swallowing.
No
doubt, every one of these "cures" is
of benefit to some form of disease.
The mistake of followers of the treatments is In thinking their particular
remedy a cure-all for every malady.
There are no universal remedies. Indeed, every type of disease must receive special attention aud be treated
after the fashion long experience and
study have taught the medical profession is best adapted to the case. Certain ills respond quickly to drags, the
virtues of which are sometimes wonderfully effective. Others need nothing but fresh air; still others a change
of climate, and a variety of diseases
need no drug* and no Journeys to the
mountains, but are bast relieved by
simple dieting,—Leslie's Weekly.
The Modern Woman.
It was in a Lenox avenue subway
train and a very tired and cross
youngster of four, who had evidently
spent the day shopping with his mother, was keeping the car in a turmoil
by a little pastime of his own. He
sprawled all over his mother's lap, at
the same time keeping up a whimpering cry, "Mamma, mamma, mamma,"
This went on until an elderly man ait*

with: "Have you a father?" The

Smuggling Popular.
Smuggling is still a fairly flourishing
industry In England. According to
the annual report, recently issued, of
the commissioners of customs for the
year ending last March, the number
of detected attempts to smuggle dutiable goods during the past year was
the largest recorded since 1895. The
quantities of tobacco, cigars and spirits seized were less than in the preceding year, but there was a consider
able Increase In the number of seizures and of persona fined, says Home
Chat No fewer than 3,104 persons
were fined tor smuggling, and the pen*
aides recovered amounted to $21,900.
The tobacco and cigars seised amounted to 11,322 pounds and the foreign
spirits to .82 .gallons.

They gave no trouble whatever to the
police.
Reports from the chief city of Brazil
are full or expectancy and Bhow that
all is in readiness to give the big
fteet a great welcome and the interest
in the festivities that will be given
in honor of the American officers increases. The preparations are now almost entirely completed, and while
the program he* not yet been issued
officially, it is easy to perceive that
the people are anxious and eager to
repay well the welcome extended to
Brass at Washington and Norfolk last
summer.
President Peana will entertain all
the American admirals, a number of
the officers and Irvinsr S. DndW t**
American ambassador; at a dinner to

Forty rooms in tbe beet hotel at
Petropolis already have been reserved

Thousands Are III.
The Worst epidemic of sickness
since 1889 Is being experienced in
Pittsburg. Physicians say thousands
are prostrated by penumonia, typhoid
and the grip. Throughout the city nearly every home |« affected in some
manner and a scarcity of employes in
the large office buildings is seriously
felt. Tbe Pittsburg Railway Co. is having difficulty in running its cars on
account of conductors and motormen
being laid up with the grip.
CUy Physician Booth *ayg the present epidemic of grip exceeds In scope
and severity all but that of 1889, and
may yet break that record. He considers it contagious and believes the
germs of disease may have originated
Tar from there. In 1889 the malady was
traced bach through Europe to Asia
and finally located in Hong Kong,
China.
The Darr Mine Horror.
Searching parties at the Darr mine
Tuesday reached entry No. 27, whero
they found 74 bodies in a heap. With
the 48 bodies which have already been
bronghf to the surface the total number recovered is lib.
The bodies found In No. 27 entry,
it Is said, are not as badly mutilated
as some of the bodies previously recovered.
Tuesday was funeral day at the
mine. Twelve identified bodies were
taken from the temporary morgue,
placed in a line along the tracks of
the Pittsburg & Lake Brie railroad.
The last sad ceremonies were conducted in the open with hundreds
of friends, relatives and sightseers
as spectators. The resultant scenes
were extremely pathetic.
Quite a number of the spectators
have a relative or friend in the mine
and their grief was pitiful. Following
the services the bodies were placed
on a train and taken to Connellsville,
Pa., for burial.

PICKPOCKET

amount, and carry it safely, for Grant
Just told me that thieves and pickpockets are abjut Some pretty seriour robberies have occurred lately, not
so far from here, either."
Bessie Pembroke's blue eyes opened widely. Bessie was only 18 y^ars
old and she was about to go to the
city to purchase several things for her
maiden aunt who was about to be married. "Do you suppose 1 should see
a real robber, a veritable highwayman? Thajt would be an adventure "
she,said excitedly. "How will he
look? What is be like, anyway?"
Mr. Pembroke smiled with amusement as he noticed the eager, interested expression on Bessie's face.
"Well, there's not much prospect of
your meeting one," he said, "but if yon
should chance to, ycu might find him
very polite and entertaining, la all.
probability he would not be noticeably
different from any other stranger;
one would reasonably suppose* there
would be nothing in dress or manner
to particularly attract attention."
The next morning canoe bright and
clear, and Bessie Pembroke stood
upon the platform with her mother
and sister waiting for the train which;
was to take her en her e*enttnl journey.
"Take care of yourself and be
sure to go and see Cousin Annie,"
Helen called after, her as she hurried
Into the car.
Bessie found an imoecupied seat,
and putting her cape and bag beside
her, settled herself comfortably as the
train steamed on. She took out her
book and soon became so interested
<n her story that she hardly noticed
as the conductor shouted the names
of the way stations until Monmouth
Junction was called and several passengers came aboard. The seats were
almost full, and, and as Bessie glanced
around to sea how the newcomers
would fare a deep serious voice near
hot asked:
"WW you allow me to remove year
bag, miss, and take this seat?'*
Bessie bowed assent, sad raising her
eyes, saw a man, a trifle above the medium height, with a fine figure and a
face not handsome, but certainly possessing an agreeable fascination that
made the girl glance shyly up from
her book at it more than once during
the next half hour; there was nothing
about his attire foppish or showy; his
clothes were of fine material and in
good taste, and were protected by a
dark gray ulster.
Placing his grip beneath the seat
and drawing a "daily" from his pocket,
he at once became immersed in the
news and oblivious, apparently, to all
that. was. going on around him,.
Thus some time passed, then Bessie closed her book and -furtively
watched the stranger at h«jr side. She
began to wish he would say something; the Journey seemed rather monotonous. She was becoming tired
and had an idea that he .might be
quite entertaining if he chose. Presently, as she made a slight movement,
her bcok slipped from her lap and fell
to the floor. The gentleman at once
reached for it and returned it to her,
glancing at the title as he did so.
"The Leavenworth Case," he said;
"one of Katherine Green's productions. Are you fond of detective
stories, miss?"
Bessie fancied that he looked at her
a little oddly as he asked the question. Then he spoke of different authors and their writings,, of foreign
sketches and travels. Truly he was
vastly entertaining and Bessie was an
appreciative and delighted listener.
Now it chanced that the seat directly behind these two fellow travelers
was occupied by an elderly countryman and a young law student, and during a pause in the conversation Bessie heard the countryman remark:
"Well, I can't say as the administration is to blame, but it strikes me
there is a screw loose somewhere, or
our officials would. &how more promptness and energy in discharging their
duties,"
"Right you are, sir," responded the
young law aspirant. "It is remarkable how negligent and dilatory our
police and others in authority to carry
out the laws are. Why, I hear there
may be one or more burglars on this
very train, uul I'll venture to say
they'll ride unmolested, an-i likely
enough fleece some unsuspecting passenger in the bargain."
Bessie Pembroke's heart throbbed
wildly; her father's words rushed into
her mind at once, and her hand stole
hastily into her pocket.
For a few moments imagination pictured all the perils she might be In,
and which she was utterly powerless
to avert; she could not change her
seat, as the cars were crowded, so
finally she determined to preserve her
presence of mind and her aunt's money
likewise, whatever happened.
They were rapidly approaching a
tunnel through which the train must
pass, anvl ah<? felt a strong presentment that in the darkness would come
the struggle for her purse, ano also
the disappearance of the robbertherefore she decided that as soon aa
tho cars entered the tunnel, she would
hold on to her money, come what
might
Sooner than she had calculated the
train rushed into the darkness and she
Immediately thrust her hand Into her
pocket, but no Almost deadly faintnew*
overpowered her *er an instant, as she
discovered that the man's hand was already there, and evidently grasping
her purse.
Nothing remained now for the heroic little miss to do but to hold it
there until they came into light again,
when he must either be uimiovered or
give up her property. So she seized
the fellow's hand and held it with a
strength and tenacity she did not imagine herself capable of exerting.
After one or two hasty efforts to release himself, the hand of the picKpocket remained passive, and when
a few moments {which seemed to the
excited girl like hours) had passed,
the cars flashed into the sunlight.
Courageous Bessie did not relinquish
her hold even then, but looked resolutely and defiantly up into the robber's face.
The girl glanced down—and—oh!
If she only had the power to vanish!
to dematerialize! For what had she
done? Simply mistaken, in the darkness and her excitement, the outside
pockst of the gentleman's duster
(which was in close proximity to her
dress) for her Own.
She snatched her hand away,.and
tried to hide the burning blushes that
covered her face, while the man quietly withdrew bis hand from his pocket,
holding the cigar he was in quest at
He talked as socially and pleasantly
as if nothing In the least unusual had
occurred; to be sure he ouried on
most of the conversation himself, but
he did it so easily and entertainingly,
that when the city station was reached, and Bessie's Journey ended, she
was able to make her replies some
longer than monosyllables.
As she arose to leave the can, the
man sot op also. and taking her cape
and bag, escorted her to the waitingroom, and Bessie bavins; decided to go

: Extravagance:
" W e l l , the next time I went there,
Mary she looked ton years younger.
She was happy and interested in
things, W»d she had tfme to read and
play on her organ and 'tend to her
plants.
"One day she spoke about what I'd
said to her, and she looked kinder
sober. 'Just think,' she says, t o w :
I work to save old rags and things
like that *nd mended and patched,
and how much do you think I really
saved? After I changed my plans
that time I kept a strict account, and
how much do you s'pose I spent? It
wasn't much over $50, and I got myself seme extra clothes, and I subscribed to magazines, and bought
some music, too, out of it'
"Mr. Fletcher come in Just then.
'Yes,' he says, 'my wife is getting awful extravagant She spent $50 more
last year than usual; but what do
you s'pose she got with it? Why, what
with her looking happier, to say nothing of better dressed; and what with
pleasant evenings, and young company over to see the boys, why, we're
all taken $50 worth of comfort apiece.
Yes, $200 worth of comfort for the
family. And I don*t know how maeh
more has been spread around the
neighborhood.'
"Well, Mary often says I saved her
life that time, and I think maybe I

chair. "I am going straight there myself, and shall be more than pleased
to show you the way. I am Hugh's
brother John.**
Oh, how could she go there, for
Cousin Annie was Hugh's wife, and
this man his brother!
As he walked on, Bessie felt more
and more keenly that some evcuse
must be made, so, gathering her courase, she said abruptly: "I wish I
could explain what I did, sir, but I
can't Fm dreadfully ashamed and
sorry, and I surely didn't intend to
be rude—but—well—that's all 1 can
say."
"Not the least explanation is needed.
I heard what was said behind us, and
you were a little anxious about your
money and made quite a natural mistake—pray never think of it again."
Bessie drew a long breath of relief
and tried to obey, but one evening,
some months after, when the family
circle was gathered about the Pembroke fireside, with the addition of
one member, who had become quite a
constant visitor, Helen reflectively remarked:
"It would be a real relief as well as
a great satisfaction to me, Jack Elliot
lo know when and where you and Be3s
first came across each other. Tin
sure I cannot imagine, unless it was
when Bess went to the city for Aunt
Maria. Do tell me, was it there that
you first yielded to woman's fascination?"
"Well, I think it was about that
time that i succumbed to feminine
charms," Jack returned. "Possibly, if
I had been a pickpocket or a highwayman I might have escaped, but as 1
wasn't I couldn't (jet away."
"What had a 'pickpocket' or a liighwayxnan' to do with it?" Helen asked
wonderingly. "Did you two have an
adventure?" Oh, come now, tell ns the
whole story."
But Jack, looking up, encountered
the Imploring eyes of his little sweetheart, and said hastily:
"No—no; It was nothing, merely a
trifling episode of the past" and he
added In a lower tone. "Never mind,
Be**le, you were a brave girl, and all
is I'm mighty glad I was the fellow
you happened to capture."
So the "whole stoty" never was toid.

"I got kinder mad at that 'Now,

and I want to show y 0H that it is a
wicked sin. Human beings are pretty

Shadow Sketches.
Nature was the first artist and a
shadow sketch was the first picture
made. She is still spreading her beautiful designs wherever a beautiful subject stands in the sunlight and we are
about to learn what she can teach us
of her method. In going along country
roads and paths, have you not admired
the shadows that ths So'went ana ail
graceful plants cast on the ground?
Those of leaves and vines actually display the outlines of the plants to even
better advantage than can be seen in
the objects themselves, because
shadows have no perspective and no
shading. An easy way to arrange a
vase of flowers or of leafy twigs for
drawing is to study their shadow on
a wt-Jl while the vase is slowly turned,
until the shadow shows them to be
suitably placed.—*5t Nicholas,
